On my t-maxx 3.3 the tires tend rip from the sidewall i don't allow Jato tires because that would be the case here but how can i prevent this from happening i don't have the money to keep buying tires. any tips on the best tire and rim combo?
 
Remove the tire and foam from the rim.......remove the foam from tire,flip tire inside out.clean inside of tire with rubbing alchohol or acetone and belt the tire with duct tape or clear nylon reinforced packing tape,flip tire right side in ,add foam,clean up old glue from rim and tire bead with acetone on a q-tip add tire with foam and reglue...........The duct tape/clear nylon reinforced tape will stop the tire from turning into a skinny donut and imploding off the rim bead at high speed......So far my best rim and tire combo is the Proline Series 40 beadlock rims with Proline Masher 2000 tires and 23mm adapters on my MGT 8.0 and I put the MGT wheels on the T Maxx .27 which works out really good at climbing things with ease....Good luck finding a combo

surgemaster1970 is correct, i duct taped the inside of the tires on my .26 maxx and that has saved me several sets of tires. before i did that it did tend to balloon and rip the sidewalls
